Here I am with another question .. thought up and pondered over during another night of insomnia!
The problem is .. This is a hard one to figure out how to ask!
Well, here goes anyway!
In space, there is no up or down .. correct?
The 'down' part is totally dependent on gravity .. right?
Now .. let's say that I am God.
(Don't get upset with me you Christians on the forum, it's the only way I can ask this.)
So, I am God and space is totally void of anything.
(A blank space .. so to speak)
.
I, as God reach out my hand and hang the planet earth on 'nothingness'
<-- That sentence is in the bible .. Well not the
planet word.).
Now since there is no up or down and no other objects that create the force of gravity (planets, moons etc), does the earth just float on this emptiness?
Or does the planet fall, rise, bob like a soap bubble ..
what?
Is everything, from the smallest moon to the largest galaxy just 'hanging' in space?
Forget the rotation and orbiting movements, I am only interested in the up or down directions.
I know .. crazy question huh?
Hey, it makes my insomnia very interesting though!
